Miles Davis Experience: 1949-1959 'Immersive Production' to Tour
Show features images of the period with music by trumpeter Ambrose Akinmusire
CAMI Music has joined forces with Miles Davis Properties, LLC and Blue Note Records to present The Miles Davis Experience: 1949-1959. Described as "a new immersive musical and historical production," The Miles Davis Experience: 1949-1959 will recapture this critical period of American history through a historical and cultural context.
Led by Blue Note Records artist and trumpeter Ambrose Akinmusire, the performance will follow Miles' musical development in linear chronology, telling of the challenges and optimism in post-war America, civil rights struggle, historical milestones and the creative cauldron of new music that Miles pioneered and nurtured. According to a press release, "The show will be an immersive experience--more than a concert, less narrow then a scripted play or media presentation. The goal is to leave the audience member with a feeling of what it was like to live in America during this important period."
The show will feature iconic era images brought together by beat poet-style narrator and actor Donald Lacy. Akinmusire will be joined by the Ambrose Akinmusire Quintet, featuring Walter Smith III (tenor sax), Sam Harris (piano), Harish Raghavan (bass) and Justin Brown (drums.) The U.S. tour will run from September 28-November 20, 2011.

England made a winning start to their tour of Sri Lanka by defeating the Board XI by an innings and 15 runs.
Colombo: England's Graeme Swann said on Sunday the team was hoping to set the stage for the upcoming Test series with a win at the next warm-up game against Sri Lanka.
England made a winning start to their tour of Sri Lanka by defeating the Board XI by an innings and 15 runs on the final day of the three-day match in Colombo on Saturday.
"It was a tough three-day game, we were all battling the heat and humid conditions. I thought we played very well," said Swann who picked up 3 for 33 during the second innings.
"The ball feels great in the hand. I am enjoying myself," he told reporters in Colombo.
The tourists will play another three-day fixture at the Sinhalese Sports Club in Colombo from March 20, before the two back-to-back Tests in Galle and Colombo.
"We need to win the next warm-up game, so that we are geared to win the first Test," said Swann, who has 166 wickets in 39 Tests.
He said Sri Lanka remained a formidable side, despite the home team busy playing back-to-back one-day games against Australia and now in Bangladesh for the Asia Cup.
"Sri Lanka and Pakistan are fairly similar animals. Sri Lanka is more consistent, particularly their top order with [Kumar] Sangakkara and Mahela [Jayawardene]."
But he said Sri Lanka's bowling attack was "not much of a mystery anymore" after the retirement of the world's leading wicket-taker Muttiah Muralitharan last April.
Sri Lanka have not won a Test series since Muralitharan's retirement, losing series to England, Australia, Pakistan and South Africa.

Health Services Research
The Global Orthopaedic Registry (GLORY) offers insights into multinational practice patterns of venous thromboembolism (VTE) prophylaxis in orthopedic surgery, based on data from 15,020 patients undergoing primary total knee arthroplasty or primary total hip arthroplasty from 2001 to 2004. Registry data show that the first choice for in-hospital VTE prophylaxis was low-molecular-weight heparin. Multimodal prophylaxis was common. Warfarin was more widely used in the USA than elsewhere in the world. GLORY data suggest that real-world practice often fails to meet the standards for prophylaxis recommended in the American College of Chest Physicians evidence-based guidelines, particularly in the USA. However, many US orthopedic surgeons may follow other practice guidelines, causing an underestimation of prophylaxis us in this study. Warfarin in the USA often failed to achieve recommended target International Normalized Ratio (INR) values. This paper reviews the GLORY practice findings in light of the contemporary literature on best practices for VTE prophylaxis in orthopedic patients.

The actual meaning of a pearly necklace has nothing to do with a tittie fuck. Its actually originates from a blow job. And after releasing your load into somebody's mouth. It runs out of the corner of the mouth and down the neck like a necklace. A tittie fuck is just a splat.
John shot his load into Janes mouth. And the hot sticky cum ran out of the corner of her mouth and down her neck like a pearl necklace.

Telmisartan and Losartan in Hypertensive IGT
- Full Text View

- How to Read a Study Record
Inhibition of RAS delays onset of diabetes in clinical studies. Preliminary evidence suggests that telmisartan may have unique metabolic properties compared to other ARB due to activation of PPARγ.
This should be tested in comparison with an ARB that is metabolically neutral in already published studies.
H0: Telmisartan is not different from Losartan with respect to metabolic and vascular effects.
H1: Telmisartan is different from Losartan with respect to metabolic and vascular effects.
Condition | Intervention | Phase |
Hypertension Impaired Glucose Tolerance |
Drug: Telmisartan 80 mg Drug: Losartan 50 mg |
Phase 4 |
Study Type: | Interventional |
Study Design: | Allocation: Randomized Endpoint Classification: Efficacy Study Intervention Model: Crossover Assignment Masking: Double-Blind Primary Purpose: Treatment |
Official Title: | Telmisartan vs. Losartan in Hypertensive Patients With Impaired Glucose Tolerance: A Comparison of Their Antihypertensive, Metabolic, and Vascular Effects |
- HOMA index
- Blood pressure surge in the morning
Estimated Enrollment: | 24 |
Study Start Date: | January 2005 |
Estimated Study Completion Date: | June 2006 |
Background: Both, ACE-inhibitors as well as angiotensin-II-type-1 (AT1) receptor antagonists seem to reduce the development of type-II diabetes in patients with hypertension and/or high vascular risk (1-3). The major drawback of that evidence is that it derives from post-hoc analyses in studies with rather poor metabolic phenotypisation of the populations included. Additionally, all that evidence is based on measurements of fasting plasma glucose.
In subjects with impaired glucose tolerance (IGT), insulin resistance and dysfunction of pancreatic beta-cells (in variable contribution) have already established increased postprandial hyperglycemia with a consecutively increased cardiovascular risk (4, 5). In addition they have a considerable risk for future development of manifest type-II diabetes in the range of 3-6 % within a year (6, 7). In such patients prevention of diabetes may also result in cardiovascular prevention. As subjects with IGT often exhibit a more or less pronounced metabolic syndrome, hypertension is a frequently found comorbidity and vice versa IGT is frequent in hypertensive patients suggesting a possible common soil of the two diseases (8).
Given these evidences, hypertensive subjects with IGT are a very suitable target population to study metabolic and vascular effects of an angiotensin-II-type-1-receptor antagonist.
Finally, it has to be acknowledged that insulin resistance needs to be seen in the context of the proinflammatory changes of the metabolic syndrome, the endothelial dysfunction associated and the possibly central role of the adipocyte (Fig. 1). Within that context, the hypothesis was put forward that blockade of the angiotensin system might prevent type-II diabetes via effects on fat cells (9).
Rationale: The effects of different angiotensin-II-type-1-receptor antagonists on insulin sensitivity have been investigated in various studies with different, either positive (10) or negative (11, 12) results but no in-depht investigations into detailed metabolic and vascular effects have been performed.
Telmisartan is an angiotensin-II-type-1-receptor antagonist that very recently has been described to possess the specific properties of a partial activator of PPARγ (13). This effect is not found for other comparable compunds such as losartan. Genes of whom the expression is under control of that receptor are centrally involved into the pathology of the metabolic syndrome as outlined above and activation of that receptor results in improved insulin sensitivity, ameliorated endothelial dysfunction, reduced inflammation and potentially preserved beta-cell function (for review see (14)). Therefore, telmisartan is a candidate that might possess very specific beneficial properties in addition to its antihypertensive effects.
Objective: To compare the metabolic and vascular effects of telmisartan and metoprolol in hypertensive patients with IGT.

Operation Kino Podcast #37: The Descendants Reviewed & Animation Discussed
This week on Operation Kino, we're buttoning up our floral shirts and slapping on some boat shoes as we review Alexander Payne's new movie The Descendants. From there we jump into something completely different in Segment 3, talking about the recent move of several high-profile directors into animation, and what that might mean for the form. But first we have a lightning round devoted to those anthropomorphized penguins of Happy Feet 2, then move on to tidbits, where Da7e has a few encouraging words about the fate of Community, David is wowed by Tilda Swinton in We Need To Talk About Kevin, Patches revisits the glories of Mystery Science Theater 3000 and Katey wants you all to know just how crazy The Twilight Saga: Breaking Dawn - Part 1 is.
You may notice the home of Operation Kino is looking a little different, and may we say spiffier. Kino Katey is no longer, and while you'll still be able to find those features like Virgin Territory and other video blogs at Cinema Blend, Operation Kino has gotten a well-deserved home of its own. It's a change, but definitely for the better! Take a listen below and find your downloading options; for more from all of us, you can follow the show (@opkino), Da7e (@da7e), David (@davidehrlich or @CriterionCorner), Patches (@misterpatches) and me (@kateyrich) on Twitter. 00:00-00:43 Lightning Round 01:12- 26:55 Introductions and Tidbits 27:18 - 42:43 The Descendants reviewed 43:07 - 01:02:05 The future of animation discussed 01:02:05 - 1:07:01 Dessert!

By Robert Jackson: Sitting and watching Olympic Boxing in the late afternoons this past week I can't help but notice how PATHETIC USA Olympic Boxing has become. Is it me or are USA Olympic boxers being cheated out of legitimate wins? Is it me or are some USA Olympic boxers showing poor sportsmanship in deference to these seemingly unfair decisions? Is it me or are USA Olympic boxers totally unprepared for and unfamiliar with Olympic Style scoring? Listening to Teddy Atlas and Bob Papa's commentary and particularly Atlas' "boxing briefs" it reminds me too much of Friday Night Fights where Atlas does a similar bit. Papa and Atlas chide US fighters for not using the jab, for not having a fighting identity, not going to the body and then finally when all is lost the flawed scoring system becomes the culprit. What I don't get is this, the Europeans, Asians, Cubans and Africans get it so why not fighters from the MOST powerful nation on the face of the Earth? My take on the USA Olympic boxing failure is similar to the Olympic Basketball failure of the past 3 Olympic games. These sports failed to master the Olympic versions of their sport which has different rules and requires different technique and tactics to be successful. It seems like during this Olympics at least USA Basketball has got it RIGHT! Let's talk about technique, for example the 'jab' in professional fighting is THE most useful tool a fighter can have, in Olympic bouts landing a jab is rarely scored in favor of other straight punches and hooks to the head which are scored heavily. Not having an identity may be more tactics then technique but I'll discuss it here anyway, it seems America's counterpart Olympic fighters of the world have mastered both infighting and outfighting so to lock into any identity would be an exercise in futility. Going to the body is another weakness that was mentioned and other than using this technique to break a fighter down to set up the KO, it's a waste of scoring opportunity, fact is in Olympic Boxing head shots are scored more heavily. I did notice that US Olympian Andrade did go to the body a lot during the fight where he was eliminated, he was never able to get the KO that he was setting up with those body shots, in the meantime his opponent was scoring heavily with the blows that counted. Counterpunching seems to me to be the most valuable asset of an Olympic fighter, I couldn't help but notice that the most successful Olympians were very good at making their opponents miss and then retaliating with scoring blows. I also noticed that the successful Olympians exhibited GREAT footwork and mobility positioning themselves at angles to their opponents giving them offensive and defensive advantages, American Olympics fighters in contrast stood squarely in front of their opponents! Mobility of the successful Olympic fighters amounted to GREAT ring generalship which allowed all of the judges to see what punches were being landed and give the fighter benefit of the doubt when clear view wasn't available. Other successful Olympians set traps and didn't overthink their intentions in a fight they just knew how to let the fight come to them, American fighters always seemed to be looking for an angle, looking for a setup, which never materialized because their opponents never gave them the time to work their angle. In short American Olympians fought more of a "Professional Style" where thinking is a valuable component of a fighters overall skills, whereas in Olympic style boxing "doing" is more valuable than "thinking about what you're going to do". Furthermore, knockdowns and standing 8's don't count for more than 1 pt and with headgear on its harder still to get a KO! American Olympians have a KO mentality rather than just to go in and throw as many punches as they can and win the fight. Tactics and techniques needed to overhaul a failed boxing system might be to fight in more international meets on foreign soil where its not guaranteed that you will get the victory and then improve on mistakes to the point where you can get the victory. Get away from the "Professional Style" mindset KO's are not important in international Amateur boxing. Learn to infight and outfight WELL rather than identifying and sticking with one style. Mobility and footwork need to be improved. Better "slip and counter", "duck and counter", and "catch and counter" skills need to be developed with the countering blow being a head shot rather than a body shot. Concentrate on throwing scoring blows rather than blows that donot count. Stop complaining about the System instead try to master the system and ALWAYS exhibit GOOD SPORTSMANSHIP even in defeat. A simple change in the scoring system would be to allow for 2 pts to be added for a scoring punch that results in a standing 8 count or a knockdown. That's my take what's yours?

Join me on December 10th, at Parsons The New School for Design in NYC, for a panel discussion on the modern music business. I will be joined by professionals in entertainment and intellectual property law, music publishing and rights management, crowd funding, and marketing. The event is free and open to the public.
Here are the details:
The Parsons Institute for Intellectual Property (PiiP) announces an evening panel presentation of industry professionals discussing how music makes money now. Since the advent of digitized music, the methods of making, using, and delivering music have grown exponentially. As a result, many royalty revenue streams and creative ways of monetizing music have emerged. The ways in which music is now marketed, bundled, downloaded, streamed, and otherwise used has resulted in many opportunities and challenges, and have kept legislation and business practices moving at an accelerated pace to keep up. Payments have changed considerably since the heyday of record royalties, making it more important than ever to understand how the new licensing, !nancing, and payment models affect the income of music creators.
If you want to understand what's happening in the music business today, join us:
On: December 10th, 6:00 to 9:00
At: Parsons The New School for Design, Teresa Lang Center, Mezzanine Level, 55 W. 13th Street.

Batman of Zur-En-Arrh
This article needs additional citations for verification. (February 2010) |
Batman of Zur-En-Arrh | |
The first appearance of the Batman of Zur-En-Arrh. Illustrated by Dick Sprang.
Publication information | |
Publisher | DC Comics |
First appearance | Batman #113 (August 1958) |
Created by | France Herron (writer) Dick Sprang (artist) |
In-story information | |
Alter ego | Tlano |
Place of origin | Zur-En-Arrh |
The Batman of Zur-En-Arrh is a fictional character in the DC Comics universe. The character first appeared in Batman #113 (February 1958), in a story titled Batman - The Superman of Planet-X by writer France Herron and artist Dick Sprang.[1] In this story, the character is the alien Tlano from the planet Zur-En-Arrh.
In 2008, writer Grant Morrison resurrected the concept, this time as a backup personality of Bruce Wayne's. The persona was stored in Bruce's subconscious in case his mind was overwhelmed by psychological trauma. It surfaced in Batman #678, shortly before Wayne's apparent death. This version was psychotic, seeing images of Bat-Mite (called "Might") and other apparitions.
Publication history[edit]
Zur-En-Arrh was first used as the name of a planet in France Herron and Dick Sprang's 1958 story Batman - The Superman of Planet-X featured in Batman #113. In the story, a Batman from Zur-En-Arrh brings what would become Earth-One Batman to his planet to help him battle giant robots piloted by an unidentified alien race. While on the planet, Earth's Batman found he developed "Superman-like" powers through similar means of the Superman of his world.
When Grant Morrison took over the Batman series in September 2006, he began referencing classic moments from the character's career, including utilizing a version of Bat-Mite and reusing a costume and dialogue from the then fifty-year-old Batman #156.[2] Among the references was the Zur En Arrh phrase, which appeared very nearly covering an alley and again on a dumpster in Batman #655 and continued to appear, usually as a background element graffiti, until the Batman R.I.P. story arc began, at which point it was brought to the forefront. The persona was re-imagined as a back up personality manufactured by Bruce himself to keep Batman able to fight in case he was mindwiped, or driven to insanity.
Fictional character biography[edit]
Silver Age[edit]
One night, Bruce Wayne finds himself in a daze and dresses as Batman and takes off in the Batplane while remaining unclear of his own actions. He soon finds that he has been teleported to another planet called Zur-En-Arrh. There, he meets the scientist Tlano monitoring his activities on Earth and has decided to become a version of Batman for his own planet. On this planet, the Batman of Earth has enhanced abilities due to the different elements of the alien planet. The two Batmen join forces to defeat giant invading robots piloted by an unidentified alien race. After the robots are destroyed, the Batman of Zur-En-Arrh gives Batman (Bruce Wayne) his Bat-Radia device as a keepsake and returns to Earth.
Modern Age[edit]
In the past, the psychiatrist Simon Hurt was hired by Batman to oversee an isolation experiment. During this process, he gave Bruce Wayne a post-hypnotic trigger connected to the phrase "Zur-En-Arrh", young Bruce Wayne's mishearing of his father's last words ("the sad thing is they'd probably throw someone like Zorro in Arkham").[3] Many years later, Doctor Hurt was working with the Black Glove when they decided to target Batman and his allies, first spreading information to the effect that Batman's father somehow survived his murder by Joe Chill. Then, using the Zur-En-Arrh trigger, in conjunction with drugs, he sent a dazed and confused Bruce Wayne onto the streets of Gotham with no memory of his life. In Batman #678, "Bat-Mite" appears on the last page, commenting, "uh-oh" to Batman's increasing delusions after Bruce has assembled a makeshift Batman costume of similar style to that worn by the Batman of Zur-En-Arrh. He then, throughout the whole Batman R.I.P. storyline, appears to counsel the Batman of Zur-En-Arrh, revealed over the course of the story to be a back-up personality created after a hallucination Batman suffered when exposed to Professor Milo's gas, intended to take over for Bruce Wayne if he was ever psychologically attacked in such a manner as to render Batman out of action. The colorful costume expresses a greater confidence and demonstrates a greater willingness to torture and possibly kill his opponents; on one occasion the Batman of Zur-En-Arrh even describes himself as being "Batman without Bruce Wayne". Batman #680 reveals that Bat-Mite is indeed a product of Batman's imagination, being Batman's rationale to prevent the unstable Zur-En-Arrh persona from going too far, although he comments that he is from the fifth dimension because the fifth dimension is imagination.
The costumes of the two incarnations of the Batman of Zur-En-Arrh are the same, consisting of gaudy, outlandish colours. In the modern continuity, the crazed Bruce Wayne comments that despite the ostentatiousness of the costume, Robin had dressed this way for years, implying that it reflects the confidence of the Batman of Zur-En-Arrh in his ability to attract the attention of his enemies where the Earth Batman dresses in dark colours to attack his foes in the shadows.
Skills, abilities, and resources[edit]
Tlano possessed much high-tech equipment, owing to his residence on a futuristic planet. His version of the Batmobile had an "atomic-powered" motor, and he flew a rocket-shaped Batplane.
His main device was the "Bat-radia", with which he could "jam atmospheric molecules", affecting the equipment of his enemies. At the end of the story, Tlano leaves Bruce with the device.
The Bruce Wayne incarnation also possesses a Bat-radia. This may or may not reflect a continuity between the two stories, as Grant Morrison has made efforts to treat Batman's entire publication history as his backstory.[4] This version of the device scrambled security systems, for instance overriding and confusing Arkham Asylum's, as well as serving as a tracking device to allow Batman's allies to find him. To add a note of humour to the story, the radia is presented as a "cheap-ass radio" instead of the object seen in the imaginary story, and members of the Black Glove dismiss it as such until they discover its true purpose.
In other media[edit]
- The Silver Age version of Batman of Zur-En-Arrh appears in Batman: The Brave and the Bold,[5] voiced by Kevin Conroy. Debuting in the episode "The Super Batman of Planet X", this version is the protector of the city of Gothtropolis (the amalgam of Gotham City and Metropolis). He is also shown to be inspired by the Zur-En-Arrh version of 'bats' (brightly colored demonic winged creatures) which explains his garish costume and was raised by his robot butler Alpha-Red. When Batman of Earth crash lands on Zur-En-Arrh, Batman of Zur-En-Arrh and his doppelgänger stop a mugger (voiced by Clancy Brown). After being asked for help by Chancellor Gor-Zonn, both Batmen battle the mad genius Rothul's giant robots (which are based on robots that both fought in the comics). During the fight, Batman of Zur-En-Arrh learns that Batman gets Superman-like powers while on Zur-En-Arrh due to the alien element Rodon and locked Rohtul away. While Tlano uses his Clark Kent-like identity to work at the Solar Cycle Newspaper Company with Vilsi Vaylar (an amalgam of Lois Lane and Vicki Vale), Batman fought Zur-En-Arrh's various threats. In prison, Rohtul deduces that Batman is from Earth and figures a weakness upon learning that the Dark Knight is exposed to Rodon. When Batman fights Rohtul upon escape from prison, the Dark Knight finds himself weakened by the Quartz that are within the chest compartment of Rohtul's giant robots (exposing Rodon to Quartz creates the same weakening properties as Kryptonite). After Rohtul corners Batman, Batman of Zur-En-Arrh comes to Batman's rescue and they defeat Rohtul after attempting to take Visli hostage. Batman of Zur-En-Arrh gives both Earth's Batman and later Green Arrow an antidote for the Rodon and the two leave for Earth. Batman of Zur-En-Arrh later makes a cameo appearance in the episode "Night of the Batmen" alongside other versions of Batman that appear as assistance for Batman.
Video Games[edit]
- Batman of Zur-En-Arrh appears as a playable character in Lego Batman 3: Beyond Gotham, voiced by Troy Baker.

Already planning to pick up the Samsung Galaxy S5 when it launches on April 11 across the U.S.? Interested in wireless charging too? If so, the wireless charging back plate for the device is already available for pre-order from Samsung's own accessory store for $29.99. You can grab it in either black or white to match the two color variants being released in the States. (more…)

ASUS Releases Two Official Nexus 7 Docks, Priced at $50 and $90
Sure, the Nexus 7 has been on the market for months, but it's never too late to finally release a few new official docking stations, right? ASUS announced the availability of two different docks for the Nexus 7 (2013) today, one which you plug the tablet into, and another which features wireless charging capabilities. (more…)
Galaxy S4 S-View Flip Cover With Wireless Charging Now Available for $55
The Samsung Galaxy S4 is joining in the S-View Flip Cover with wireless charging party this week, only a month or so after the Galaxy Note 3 received the Qi-compatible accessory. This is your standard S-View Flip Cover, but Samsung went ahead and turned the attached backplate into a wireless charging plate that up until now, as eluded the S-View race. In other words, this product is no different than the S-View Flip Cover you might already own, other than the fact that when attached and set atop a wireless charger, it will wirelessly charge your device. (more…)
Quick Look: Galaxy Note 3 S-View Flip Cover With Wireless Charging
At the end of December, Samsung finally released the S-View Flip Cover with wireless charging for the Galaxy Note 3. The cover is exactly what you'd expect from the S-View series (actionable items through a window without opening the cover), but with the inclusion of wireless charging to the backplate, you get the freedom to never have to plug-in your device to charge it. We seem to continue to see movement towards wireless charging becoming somewhat of a standard in the industry even though with Samsung you'll almost always have to pay extra for it.
We picked up the S-View Flip Cover with wireless charging at its steep $69.99 price tag to give it a whirl for those interested. All of the details, features, and our thoughts for it can be found in the video below, but I'll say one thing – this case feels a heck of a lot more premium than that fake, wannabe pleather stitched backing that comes with phone. I'm not sure any case on the planet is worth $70, though, even if it does feel this nice. (more…)
Official Galaxy Note 3 Wireless Charging S-View Flip Cover Now Available for $69.99
Being able to wirelessly charge a smartphone is something you really can't appreciate until you have gone through a couple of phones that are capable of accomplishing the task. Sure, you still need a wire and a charging pad, but the convenience of not having to plug in your phone at any time is an item I'm starting to categorize as one that I can't live without. Especially with the introduction of new cables like USB 3.0 and Google turning ports upside down on the regular, plugging in cables has become a nuisance.
If you own a Galaxy Note 3, your wireless charging situation became slightly more robust this week with the introduction of the wireless charging S-View Flip Cover. As the name suggests, you are looking at a combo cover that merges a Note 3 wireless charging rear cover with an S-View Flip Cover. So you get all of the window-esque benefits that the Flip Cover provides, with the option to drop your phone on a wireless charging pad and have it do work. (more…)

Cyber Monday, Black Friday, the Moto X fiasco, and the rest of the holiday weekend may be over, but deals continue to flow in since the holiday shopping season is only now getting under way. For those with a phone that can utilize wireless charging (Nexus 5, DROID MAXX, LG G2 on Verizon, etc.) yet haven't purchased a wireless charger because most are overpriced, feel free to check out today's deal through Daily Steals.
They are currently selling the Incipio GHOST 100 wireless charger that was made specifically for the new DROID family of phones at 50% off or $20. Well, it's "DROID" branded anyway. The good news is that it's Qi-enabled, so it should work with almost any phone that has wireless charging capabilities. It should work with all of the phones I mentioned above, along with the Galaxy S4 (with a wireless charging back), DROID DNA, DROID Mini, and others.
Cheers Mike!
Cyber Monday Deal: Tylt Vu Wireless Charger and Other Tylt Products are 50% Off With Coupon Code
Tylt, an accessory company largely know for its Tylt Vu wireless charger, is hosting a site-wide 50% off sale for Cyber Monday. The Tylt Vu is more than likely the accessory you'll want to pick up (especially the new Nexus 5 owners in the building), thanks to its beautiful soft touch finish, variety of vibrant colors, and excellent viewing angle during charges, however, the rest of their accessories are of the highest quality too.

Quick Look: Official Nexus Wireless Charger for Nexus 5, 7, and 4
Did you pick up the official Nexus Wireless Charger that went on sale through Google Play yesterday? I can imagine that the $49.99 price tag made some of you hesitate on pulling on the trigger, so as always, we picked one (or two) up to give it a quick spin and share our thoughts. For those not familiar, the Nexus Wireless Charger (NWC) is officially supported by the Nexus 5, Nexus 7 (2013), and Nexus 4, since each has wireless charging built-in. With that said, I would be surprised if this charger didn't work with other wireless charging-capable devices like the new DROID line. Unfortunately, we don't have those in house any longer, so we won't be able to test.

Sensitive metal layer assisted guided mode resonance biosensor with a spectrum inversed response and strong asymmetric resonance field distribution |
Optics Express, Vol. 20, Issue 13, pp. 14584-14595 (2012)
Enhanced HTML Acrobat PDF (1075 KB)
In this paper, a metal layer assisted guide mode resonance (MaGMR) device with high sensitivity is proposed for bioanalytical applications and its functioning is experimentally proved. We find that the reflection spectra present a unique inversed response. The resonance mechanism is also discussed. Numerical calculation results indicate that the high sensitivity performance of MaGMR comes from the strongly asymmetric resonance modal profile and low propagation angle inside the waveguide. There is a one-fold enhancement of the evanescent wave in the analytes region compared to typical GMR. According to the experimental results, the proposed MaGMR achieved a bulk sensitivity of 376.78nm/RIU in fundamental TM mode resonating at 0.809μm with the first diffraction angle. Experiment results show a 264.78% enhancement in the sensitivity compared to that of the typical GMR sensor in the same resonance conditions of TM mode.

Culinary Inspiration
We didn't prepare meals at home often. The kitchen in our apartment was not exactly a dream kitchen. It was galley style with very limited cabinet and counter space and no dishwasher. The refrigerator was a twenty year old, single door model with a tiny freezer that had to be defrosted once a month. As much as I've always enjoyed cooking and baking, this kitchen did not exactly inspire me.
It wasn't just the kitchen that made culinary inspiration difficult, there was a lack of places to find inspiration. We take the internet and food channels on television for granted now, but at the time, you had to rely on cookbooks and magazines for recipes. Finding the perfect dish was a lot more time consuming. There was no function to search by ingredient other than the index at the back of the book, and, of course, you had to have the book in the first place.
Eventually, though, we started cooking at home more often. After a trip to an apple orchard, Mr. W and I had a pie bake-off to see who could make the tastiest apple pie (he won). Shortly after that we made homemade clover leaf rolls to take to Thanksgiving dinner. Little by little, we found ways to be creative in that small space.
Fast forward to today and cooking together is one of our favorite things to do. It's more than just a hobby, it's a passion. While other couples may have date night and go out for the evening, we enjoy spending our date night in our own kitchen. It's time spent together, talking, laughing, listening to music and creating food to share with family and friends. Our efforts are, more often than not, successful, but we've made a few duds along the way. We made some less than impressive empanadas (really bland) last week and an inedible Pad Thai the week before. Two bottles of sickeningly sweet homemade Limoncello await a palatable use, as well. The butterflied lobster tails, Thai shrimp, lemon glazed chicken scallopini, five cheese paninis, and chicken empanadas we've made recently more than make up for all of it, though.
In the very near future, we would like to share our cooking adventures on This Stop Willoughby. We'll be choosing dishes from random places all over the globe as well as putting our own riff on recipes from chefs right here in the U.S. They will, likely, be posted on Saturday or Sunday of each week. We hope to inspire you to cook with someone you love (or a perfect stranger if that's your thing). I hope you'll join us!

I remember your anniversary post of last year too. You and your groom were walking back down the aisle.
I think it's great that the two of you share a common interest. Especially after 22 years. Nothing like cooking up some love in the kitchen.
Happy Anniversary. - April 22, 2011 at 10:32 AM

Su, Happy Anniversary. It was wonderful sharing a "slice" from your early days of marriage. I think it's wonderful the way you and your hubby harmonize in the kitchen, and despite the occasional "dud" as far as flavor is concerned, it sounds like every experience is a successful adventure in together-time.

Hi Willoughby,
Sorry I'm so late to wish you a wonderful anniversary. I hope you and Mr. Willoughby had a lovely evening and I wish you many, many more happy years together.
I think it's great that you two enjoy cooking together and I look forward to your upcoming posts. My husband has no clue how to cook. I'm pretty sure he doesn't even know where the pots and pans are kept-- and I'm not kidding about that.
Cheers, jj - May 4, 2011 at 9:45 PM

Beautiful New Poster For Darren Aronofsky's 'Black Swan' – Starring Natalie Portman, Vincent Cassel & Mila Kunis
This beautiful new poster for Darren Aronofsky's Black Swan has made it's way online via ONTD. To date Black Swan is neck and neck with 127 Hours for my favourite film of 2010. I've been extremely fortunate to have seen both of them already. Black Swan is breathtaking, you won't see a more haunting yet completely enchanting movie this year. It's a complete triumph. You can check out my interview with Natalie Portman here, director Darren Aronofsky here, and Mila Kunis/Vincent Cassel here
BLACK SWAN follows the story of Nina (Portman), a ballerina in a New York City ballet company whose life, like all those in her profession, is completely consumed with dance. She lives with her retired ballerina mother Erica (Barbara Hershey) who zealously supports her daughter's professional ambition. When artistic director Thomas Leroy (Vincent Cassel) decides to replace prima ballerina Beth MacIntyre (Winona Ryder) for the opening production of their new season, Swan Lake, Nina is his first choice. But Nina has competition: a new dancer, Lily (Kunis), who impresses Leroy as well. Swan Lake requires a dancer who can play both the White Swan with innocence and grace, and the Black Swan, who represents guile and sensuality. Nina fits the White Swan role perfectly but Lily is the personification of the Black Swan. As the two young dancers expand their rivalry into a twisted friendship, Nina begins to get more in touch with her dark side with a recklessness that threatens to destroy her.

Nexus 7. I use it for gaming, surfing and magazine type stuff like Flipboard and Google Currents. I've read books on it but my first choice for books is still the Kindle. I take it everywhere with me so I can just whip it out when I've spare time.

Nexus 7. Use it at times for Facebook and suring the net and emails. Used it while I was in Amserdam during the week for maps and Facebook. Also used the Pure Lounge app while I was in the Hotel. I also listen to my music on it from time to time.

I have the iPad 3
To be honest I'm thinking of switching to a google nexus as its more portable and I've went right off apple recently. I also prefer the Android operating system now. My dad will probably take my iPad off me. I use it for browsing, email and watching tv, very occasionally gaming. |

Email, surfing, reference apps (calculator, conversions, weather, travel, IMDB, news etc), maps, games, reading PDFs, youtube, the odd ripped TV series DVD here and there. Wouldn't be without it. It's brilliant. |

Just got an iPad and am just loving the speed of access to the web and to emails. Checks train times virtually instantly, for example, and remembers my location, so searches are quicker and easier.
Will also use it to take and display photos. It's an unnecessary gadget, of course, but a very enjoyable one |

Internet browsing, social networking, simple emails, news, games, music and video. I recently bought an Apple TV and use the iPad as a remote for music and video on a big screen with proper speakers. I don't use it for: The camera. |

Nexus 7.
I use it for web browsing, YouTube, email, occasional gaming, Netflix, writing (using Google drive makes this incredibly simple for stopping and starting on different devices) and social networking. It does all of those things wonderfully, hence my continued enjoyment from the tablet. |

Nexus 7.
I use it for surfing, the odd game or puzzle, watching videos, listening to the radio, listening to audio books, listening to music, reading via the kindle app, receiving and sending emails, social media, work related stuff such as invoicing and printing via cloud print, storing technical pdf's for work including wiring diagrams etc. For downloading torrents via synodroid when I'm out and about. Probably some other stuff that doesn't come to mind. P.S. I used to do this mainly on my S3 because that was just as capable, but the larger screen makes it easier on the Nexus. |

I don't have an iPad but my dad has. He tends to use his 2 laptops more, but when he uses the iPad he uses it for reading PDFs, the odd game and web browsing. Mum borrows it a lot for games and web browsing.

About TLR Inhibitors
Dynavax's endosomal TLR inhibitors are a novel class of oligonucleotides, called immunoregulatory sequences (IRS), that specifically inhibit the TLR-induced inflammatory response associated with autoimmune and inflammatory diseases. Preclinical data from animal model studies show Dynavax's TLR inhibitors block IFN-alpha and also reduce symptoms in multiple autoimmune diseases models, such as lupus, inflammatory skin disorders, and rheumatoid arthritis.
